Most (all?) of them aren't in Russia. I run half of the "Russian" exits and they are in Norway they just use Russian IPs.

About what? Running Tor nodes is pretty boring as long as you don't get a police visit which I luckily didn't have till now.

you have a german nick name suggesting you are german, you run tor nodes in norway which appear to be located in russia ... i think that is already a lot of technically interesting stuff. also many people would probably like to understand why you do it and how much you spend for this hobby(?).

That sounds like a good way to run exit nodes without getting your home raided

It's the provider I'm using that does it for the Tor exits people host with them. I don't have my own IPv4 space, which is something like 8k$ for the smallest useful subnet and that's too expensive for a hobby.

They just have a Russian ASN and IP space but it's still located in Norway.
